PPS Search 2!
Thanks to the amazing talents of Chua Kuan Yong (he's got a really cool looking blog too -- didn't know you could make your Blogspot look so good!), PPS Search is looking remarkably tasty!! Really, an excellent job done over the weekend. Check it out! Just a few more minor touches and the search engine will be 100% ready.

Hey, pretty cool. What order are the search results displayed? By relevance or how? What's the search algorithm like?
I searched for 'Web 2.0' and got a lot of results with 'Web' and '2', but not the whole phrase.

The search results are displayed according to date, earliest first.
It searches according to keywords submitted (it doesn't search by phrases) and it doesn't have an advanced search feature yet e.g. using AND or OR expressions to narrow the search.
But it works generally well, it allows you to dig up a wealth of past pings. Good stuff when you're looking to do some research for that term paper.
More to come, but this is a good start i think.
